Fishing the Wynoochee
« on: February 10, 2013, 05:53:20 PM »
I took a friends kid and his buddy to fish for Steelhead for the very first time. 

Does anyone care to guess who hooked up and caught fish?     :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Those two went out.... 

One fish that one of them had on was about an 8 lb'er. And I saw him pulling his line like it was hung up.  Then he realized it was a fish.  Laughed pretty hard on that one.

Hit it today from the bank and got a  hen with my home made eggs.  A couple of guys in a boat tried for this fish for over an hour.  2 casts with my eggs after they left (they weren't out of sight yet) and BAM!  She's not real bright but sure fought well.

Hey Polar Bear, were you drifting them or running them under a float?  I need to gain some faith in plastics.

Drifting.  I went as simple as it gets, drop swivel, 4' 8 pound leader, #4 hook and 4 eggs.  The water is gin clear and low.  It seemed that everyone that came down in a boat had fish but mostly little brats.  With a little more rain it should heat up.

What's your site?
Would love to see your products
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.
